Here, My Dear is the fourteenth studio album by the American soul singer and songwriter Marvin Gaye, released as a double album on December 15, 1978, on Motown-subsidiary label Tamla Records. Recording sessions for the album took place between 1977 and 1978 at Gaye's personal studios, Marvin Gaye Studios, in Los Angeles, California. It is a concept album, notable for its subject matter focusing largely on Gaye's acrimonious divorce from his first wife, Anna Gordy Gaye.

A commercial and critical failure upon its release, it was later hailed by music critics in the years following Gaye's death as one of his best albums, and was placed at number 493 on Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums of All Time" list in 2020.
